MGOBLOG Banner

I am hereby recommending a change in the MGoBanner at the top of this page to reflect the success of the Men's Basketball Program and I present this proposal based on the following...

1) Hoke Springs Eternal was perfect for last year, as he was hired in January and the Spring marked the period that he galvanized the fan base as well as started building his program. As long as we all agree that Hoke (or hope) springs eternal, there is no need for it to spring further since eternity is forever.

2) The football program went through a 4 year period of turbulence (starting with "The Horror" and ending with Josh Groban), followed by a return to glory in 2011. We are simply past the whole "New Hope" thing.

I love Michigan Basketball, and pretty much everyone here does, but at the end of the day MGoBlog is a fairly football centered blog. That's why Football should at least be somewhat represented in the banner (at least if it's a long term banner like the current one at least)

Love the bloody face pic idea. Novak epitomizes all the positive changes for our basketball team and the virtues of UM. I'm a basketball fan over football so I like the idea of it in the banner with football but i get it is a football first blog so can understand why it may just be football in any future banner.
I also think athletic facilities or school buildings (union?) may be cool in a more elaborate multiple sport banner

Remember his meta post a few weeks ago where he asked for ideas on how to raise money to relaunch the magazine? I said put a dollar value you want to raise and if we do it, then you have to give us back the old point system.

I Bkfinest it that if he did that he would blow the doors off his fundraising.

I swear, the day it goes back to the olden days I'm going to rip a bunch of people a new asshole. I've been keeping a list of everybody who's wronged me since this new system came around and I'll negbang them until they beg for mercy, and then I'll keep banging them.

He's a well known troll. Look at his posts regarding hockey and the non-revenue sports, the marching band, and his general attitude towards things Michigan fans hold dear.

Edit: and now four times more people have upvoted a thread by a pretty well known troll than upvoted CenterIce's front-paged diary, and twice as many as upvoted Tom From AA's user created HoF candidate list. Glad we have our priorities in order, people.

It means you made a post that was nice about basketball when it was the only post-game thread. Take a look at your comments, there aren't people on the board who want you here beyond your stupid pandering.
